William H. Taft Presidential campaign button pinback, 1908 unusual version oval:
$18.59

William Howard Taft served as the 27th President of the United States (1909–1913) and as the tenth Chief Justice of the United States (1921–1930), the only person to have held both offices. Taft was elected president in 1908, the chosen successor of Theodore Roosevelt, but was defeated for re-election by Woodrow Wilson in 1912 after Roosevelt split the Republican vote by running as a third-party candidate. In 1921, President Warren G. Harding appointed Taft to be chief justice, a position in which he served until a month before his death.
This pinback comes from the 1908 campaign and is in excellent condition (please see pictures for more details on condition). No scratches and photo is plain. This is the only version I have seen of this type with a longer pin (about 2 inches long). Oval in shape.
US buyers only, please.
Thanks & Happy offerding!
